Col. Al-Malki extended the Coalition forces' condolences to the family of (Martyr) Abdulmottaleb Ahmed Hussein Ali and the Egyptian people on the bereaved loss, resulting from the heinous hostile Houthi attack, noting that the possession of a terror group like the Houthi militia of ballistic missiles is considered a flagrant threat to the regional and international security, mounting pressure on the world community to work together to confront this serious escalation. He said the combination of extremist ideology and a terror-sponsor state has contributed to further stirring up struggles in some regions, adding that the lack of both tolerance and co-existence and the dominance of expansionist revolutionary thoughts were designed to spread chaos and hegemony. The situation in Yemen is a sample of this scenario representing the accumulation of the forces of evil and destruction. Col. Al-Maliki said Yemen has so much suffered from the extremist ideology of the Iran-backed Houthis who usurped power in Sanaa and controlled the State's institutions, including vital capabilities and heavy weapons, a development that led to the destabilization of the country and suffering of its people. --More 22:39 LOCAL TIME 19:39 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w651671
